For the love of getting out together

Go With
Your Dog

Find a good day out—together.

Good places. Fresh air. Your favorite company.
Find somewhere you’re both welcome.

Let’s have a sniff around

A little app for your next outing

Free to use. No account. Just add dog.

Life is better with a plus-one

More “come along.”
Less “stay home.”

A coffee on the patio. A new trail to sniff. Running with other dogs in the park. A weekend away with room for one more. Go With Your Dog helps you discover places to eat, explore, and stay with your dog.

For local wanderers, weekend adventurers, and anyone who looks at those hopeful eyes by the door and thinks, “All right. You’re coming too.”

Around the corner or out of town. Big adventures optional.

A little research. A lot of tail-wagging.

We do the digging.

There’s more here than a list of search results.
We bring scattered information together, with dogs in mind.

01

Find the possibilities

We research public databases, national listings, and local websites to find places worth a closer look—from a nearby park to a welcoming patio.

02

Sniff out the details

We then use AI to curate and enrich the information, looking for dog policies, useful details, and things to keep in mind.

03

Make a day of it

We take your dog's temperament into account, helping you find an outing that suits your companion—whether they’re a social butterfly or prefer a little breathing room.

A note from the field: Places and policies change, and AI can get things wrong. Check with the venue before you head out. Your dog has already forgiven us; we’d like you to, too.

Ron & Philly · The whole team

One developer. One very good girl.

Hello from us.

I’m Ron—a retired software engineer, game industry veteran, and devoted dog dad. I’m making Go With Your Dog for people who think a good day gets even better when their dog can come along.

Meet Philly: my muse, development partner, and public relations officer. She’s a total cuddlebug and habitual sock thief. I couldn't have made this app without her.

Made with love. Supervised by Philly.

A little kindness goes a long way

For good days.
And good dogs.

Keep the adventures coming

Support the app

Go With Your Dog is free to use. Keeping the database fresh and current costs money, though—apparently servers don’t accept payments in jerky treats.

If the app helps you and your dog enjoy a day out, optional support on Patreon helps keep it going.

Coming soon · Always optional

Help a dog find their person

Palm Springs Animal Shelter

I’m based in Palm Springs, so this one is close to home. I’ve chosen Palm Springs Animal Shelter to help animals in my own community find a person—and a home—of their own.

A gift to the shelter helps support animals waiting for their next chapter.
